Ash Shore R1/T1/S1: The Party- Our First Birthday!

Rhythm 1/Turning 1/Season 1

It’s our first Ash Shore birthday and I was a bit flummoxed. How on earth do I age him up?!? I mean, sure, I could buy a fridge, stove, and counter and make one of his moms bake one but meh I didn’t want to! So, I found a room on the gallery containing a single cake. Then, I had to cheat them money to buy candles!

So, our next issue was how on earth do we invite everyone? I have never utilized the clubs in the game as much as I have since I started Ash Shore. Likely because I now have a mod that allows me to have more than 8 sims. So, the family got all set up at the park and soon people started to show up for the party.

This lady, Vivian, wasn’t invited and showed up in a towel. None of the adults can even look at her! Skylar approves but Layla is glaring daggers at her.

Then, the pets began showing up! The one with the hoodie is Zion’s cat Ragtime. The orange one is Vaughn’s but I forget her name. (I do realize you probably have no idea who is who. Sorry. Vaughn is the one at the chess table in the above pic. Zion is the latin looking guy with the long black hair, beard, and mustache.)

“When I age up I can use a urinal.”

Poor Freddie looks exasperated that Everett showed up in the same outfit! Even worse is that when I changed Everett to his second everyday outfit it was the same one that Drew was wearing just in another color! So, I had to change Drew’s outfit. Geeze. I really need to get more tops that I like because I overuse the ones that I do.

These thought bubbles are hilarious!

Ohmygosh! I just noticed that Efrain and Sierra have the same tops too! *sigh* I actually took the picture of Brock mopping, I swear.

Focusing back on the reason that we are here! Darren is so cute. I was so excited to see what he would look like as a child.

Originally, I took this pic to show that weird look on Tanya’s face. She’s not too comfortable around people she doesn’t know well so I felt bad for her. But, look at Bryanna! (red haired teen in grey and white shirt) She is glaring daggers at her!

Adorable Darren again. He was just chatting away with everyone.

I took a bunch of pics of dogs attacking sims. I’m not sure whose dog this even is?

Ohmygosh this was sooo funny! I had made a rule in the party club for no mean interactions and, of course, it was Skylar who broke it. And everyone freaked out! She looks quite pleased with herself.

Finally, it’s time! So exciting!

A second picture… because he’s so cute.

The cuteness process in action!

Look at him! He’s so cute. Also, this is really making me want to try the height sliders. He’s 4 1/2 and his sister and Keira are 6 1/2.

Random shots of sims being attacked by a dog that is nowhere near them! That dog belongs to the lady Vivian who came at the beginning in a towel. Perhaps it is exacting revenge?

Darren can’t believe all of these dog fights at his party!

Darren’s sister Skylar is not what you’d call a people person. Not that she’s shy or anything. She just doesn’t like people.

Darren, on the other hand, is outgoing and cheerful. You have to agree that he’s adorable!

I had Lucia rally the troops because I didn’t want the fun to end!

I have no idea what Judy said but Darren looks furious. I did realize that my MCCC mod’s autonomy tuning is conflicting with the new autonomy mod I’ve been using and am in love with. Which was what was causing the constant mischief interactions.

Ugh, yes I know, where on earth did she get that camera? But, it was such a cute pic I couldn’t resist!

And at 5am the party was finally winding to a close. It was so much fun. It will be Kyra’s birthday soon too so we have that to look forward to!

Note: I split this up because I realized I had a lot of pics just of me swooning over potential couples. It wouldn’t have made the chapter huge or anything but it broke up the rhythm of the chapter. Heh. Rhythm.

I cut them out! I have a free program called Gadwin PrintScreen. So what I do is hit the printscreen button on my keyboard and it brings up a thing like you’d use to crop photos. I choose the area I want and try to make it the same rectangular shape as a normal screenshot if possible. Despite the size difference WordPress usually sizes them to look almost exactly the same.
